    Heh.  It took me a while to figure that out when I first started 
retooling
    buildworld.  But, yes, the key is the fact that all the primary 
compiler
    and assembler tools run through the objformat program.  Many of 
the paths
    are hardwired at compile time so, for example, the buildworld 
crosstools
    stage builds a custom objformat and compiler binaries which the 
buildworld
    uses simply by virtue of running the correct objformat binary.
